At tubal-reversal.net we use UBB classic for our forums
http://www.tubal-reversal.net/ubb/ultimatebb.php. Early this morning all topics for the last 30 days became closed and
featured. This happened in all forums to several hundred topics so quickly
that it does not appear that it could be done by normal admin procedure, but
most likely by a bug in the program.
This has occurred three times in the past, approximately 2 and 3 months ago.
The authors of this script (Infopop) say no one else has reported this and
attribute it to hacks I have made to the script. They have not been
interested in investigating this problem although we have purchased their
Gold Support option.
I am at a loss to the cause of this infrequent but serious problem and am at
a loss as to what to do about it other than uninstalling and reinstalling
all hacks. I would greatly appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.
